Another application of the spell damage mechanic, this weapon grows in power each time a spell is cast while the weapon is in play by either player.  If the weapon is flown after it has grown, it will retain its damage, and since flying weapon is a spell, gain an extra boost as well.

that image is pretty awesome... upped version seems kinda OP to me considering both versions activate with spells played by both players and spells are not exactly a rare thing in this game

keep in mind that this growth mechanism requires other cards to function.  lava golem gains +2|+2 for 1 :earth each turn, on its own card, is this OP?  there may be turns that this weapon grows not at all.  if anything, i was thinking the growth mechanic on ths=is weapon could use a boost given it occupies a weapon slot, and is limited by it, unless paired with flying weapon.

lava golems only grow once each turn (and are prone to CC). This weapon has no real limitation on how much it can grow per turn and in a fast-pace game like this one, speed can be more important than stability.

I like this iteration on the spell damage weapon. If you cap it similar to the way farenheight is capped. that might be good. But in general i dont think this is OP.

Edit: I waas only looking at the unupped. the upped might be better if it kept +1 per spell and just had a the 6 attack. not both.

ill flesh this out:
plus: deals spell damage, ignoring most shields
minus: the spell reflect shields reflect the damage
plus: can grow more than once a turn
minus: it may not grow at all some turns
minus: weapon slot limitation
minus: requires other cards to grow
minus: a single PC can remove it
plus: not susceptible to cc
minus: susceptible to cc when flown

Titan is 5  :gravity + 1 Card for 7 | 8 damage and Momentum (Ignore all shields)
Arc Blade + Lightning Unupped is 5 :aether + 2 Cards for 5 Spell Damage.
Fulgora + Lightning Upped is 4 :aether + 2 Cards for 8 Spell Damage.

IMHO you should lower the upped's starting attack to 5 and raise the unupped 'growth' rate to 2.

OP in my opinion. I could become a 20 damage wapon in less than 2 turns (Fractal+ROL anyone?)... maybe you could reset the counter whenever it deals damage
